Re: Cooling a tank?
fans are good, my thank is sealed at 1.022 and i use a small HP computer fan, it colds the water from 29ºC to 25º C all the day long, a little but noisy but efective.

What i told his is: 1.- Separate the puffer to a 30gl. 2.-adquire a 120g for the puffers only, he accepted this. 3.-Then rise salinity to 1.018. 4.- adquire an appropriate skimmer and a sump filter for the 120gl in order to get more ...

Re: crayfish?
It depends from puffer to puffer, and also some species have fastest teeth growth rate.
Generally, all the foods with soft shell (snails, shrimps and crayfish) provide enough "trim" but some puffers need harder foods, like crab legs or small mussels.

Re: C.irrubesco planted tank
Beautiful tank! i like the plants distribution (but left side looks a little empty ñ_ñ) and those puffers seems to be just ok with their partners, certainly is the C. lorteti the one who is quite agressive at them selves and in some cases to other species. Now you make me want a Red Eye red Tail puf...
